Hi. I purchased an AMD64 laptop last December, and have never had perfect success in getting suspend to disk to work reliably. I thought maybe I had a bug in Suspend2, but careful diagnosis kept pointing in the direction of drivers. In addition, from time to time, the screen goes plain white and the system stops responding, requiring a hard power off. The other day, I saw a report of bios settings for the uma aperature not matching what Linux was detecting. I checked my machine, and found that this issue is occuring here. If I set the bios to 32 meg, lspci says it's 64, and so on. If I set the bios to 256 meg, the system is unbootable. (Forgive me if my terminology is a bit messed up - I'm not a pci expert!). I've seen a number of other reports of issues with pci region sizes, not always graphics related. http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/32870-pci-failed-allocate-mem-resource-error-pcie-fc3-64bit.html http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Fedora/2005-11/4702.html http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=42597&page=5 I'm therefore wondering, could there be some bug in the sizing of regions that's leading to the sizes being doubled? I have also emailed my laptop manufacturer to see if there are any bios updates available.
